nuts holding the seat down are inside the toilet and aren't accessible. Is there a way to replace the seat without having to replace the entire toilet?

Kohler will try to sell you $46 anchor bolt kit 84999 & also there special tool. You should expect that for a $400 toilet.
Try this instead:
1. Use 1/8" drill bit and drill and drill around the bolt until the anchor material can be removed.
2. Carefully clean hole with 11/32 drill to remove all remaining acchor material.
3. Go local hardware store & buy a 10 - 32 3/8"X3/4" rubber expansion plug (make certain threaded part is brass & has shoulder on 1 end), a 10 - 32X1.5" Phillips bolt and couple of small fender washers fit the seat.(about $4 for 2)
4. Assemble carefully not to over tighten and crack the porcelain.
Hope it helps
Excellent post and it works. You don't need the kit.
In step 1, do you mean to drill the actual top of the anchor itself (the ring around the bolt) and try to break/destroy the anchor?
